Lyrics Darkness and the Night - Roddy Hart & The Lonesome Fire

Darkness and the Night

Well, I read your letter, could have said it better
But I don’t mind, guess it passed the time
Something caused a landslide, tore me up from inside
It was cruel, now I look a fool
And I’m not bulletproof
I admit that I don’t always get it right
I don’t always get it right
But if you want the truth
I still need you like the fighter needs the fight
Like the darkness needs the night
As the word was spoken, and the bond was broken
I heard it said, you left me for dead
In the perfect storm we kpt each other warm
I won’t take th blame, not in my good name
And I’m not bulletproof
I admit that I don’t always get it right
I don’t always get it right
But if you want the truth
I still need you like the fighter needs the fight
Like the darkness needs the night
So go ahead and find somebody new
Just go ahead and find somebody new
They won’t love you like I do
Did you ever know me, take the time to show me
What it was you wanted, now my dreams are haunted
If you put the work in, I might not be hurting, love
It’s only love in the end
